Shippensburg, PA (Youth1) - Softball teams from all over Central and Western Pennsylvania recently flocked to Memorial Park for the 2010 USSSA Central & Western State Championship tournament.



The competition kicked off in the 10U division with the Central PA Krunch crushing the competition to win the state championship. The Krunch stumbled out of the gates as they dropped the first game of pool play to the PA Poison, 6-2, but that loss fueled the Krunch and they rattled off 4 straight victories, outscoring their opponents 48-10, making it to the championship game where they faced the PA Poison. Down 4-1 at their last at-bat, the Krunch rallied for 4 runs to beat the Poison 5-4. This victory is the Krunch’s 2nd consecutive 1st place finish and Youth1 would like to congratulate Nicole Bechtel, Kaia Bonshock, Ava Bottiglia, Cassidy Bowen, Rachel Garlock, Samantha Gress, Gabby Krupilis, Maddie McMillan, Cheyanna Phillips, Jenna Sloss, Tori Tredinnick, and Lexi Weaver on their outstanding play.
